For the Dagu Water Camp soldiers, the happiest thing is to work in the Eight Banners Navy next door.

The so-called part-time job means that whenever the Eight Banners Navy comes to review from the capital, since the bannermen sailors cannot operate the ship at all, they can only privately borrow people from the Dagu Water Camp to deal with it.

Perhaps because they knew they would need help from the Dagu Water Camp for a long time, the remuneration offered by the flag soldiers was relatively high.

Jia Liu went to the Eight Banners Navy to launch a surprise attack. If he had been notified in advance, he might have seen a large group of people from the Dagu Water Camp at the Eight Banners Navy.

Not without irony.

The basic salary is not fully paid, and the maintenance costs for ships and weapons are either non-existent or low. In this case, how can the officers and soldiers of the Dagu Water Camp be motivated to protect the Qing Dynasty's territorial waters?

When Jia Liu held discussions with the officers and soldiers at the scene, he definitely encouraged the officers and soldiers to speak boldly and say whatever they wanted. Even if the sky fell, he, the governor, would make the decision for them.

In addition, seeing that Ding Youyi had his helmet removed and all the officers were under centralized supervision, the soldiers in the water camp must have complained about their grievances and grievances.

There were many complaints against officers for bullying them and even toying with their wives and daughters.

Jia Liu was very angry after hearing this and asked his attendants to record them one by one. If they were true, they would be dealt with severely.

The problems summarized by all parties are not ordinary serious, but very serious.

In order to completely solve the problem of Dagu Water Camp, Jia Liu had to use only one method, which was to remove all the 60 water camp officers including Ding Gui and hold them accountable.

But as a result, Shuiying faced the problem of paralysis of the command system.

How can we command troops without officers?

"The prime minister must be from the state headquarters, and the fierce generals must be from the army!"

Jia Liu was determined and ordered the water camp soldiers to be divided into groups of 20, and these 20 people would elect one person to be a member of the officer corps.

These reserve officers will then be put into groups of ten for promotion.

The person recommended in this way must be highly supported by the soldiers and must be someone with some abilities.

The new command system of the Dagu Water Camp is composed of these people.

Shuan Zhu raised the issue that the soldiers might not be literate.

"You can learn to read if you are not literate, but you can make great use of it as long as you are willing to learn!"

Jia Liu was determined, and this was his unprecedented attempt at military work.

Soldier selection, the reserve officer corps, is actually the prototype of the soldier committee.

This approach can completely reduce the influence of corrupt and incompetent officers on the army, thus giving the army a completely new look.

In addition to re-structuring the command system of the Dagu Water Camp through the selection of officers, Jia Liu also specially allocated 50,000 taels for the rectification of the Dagu Water Camp. In addition to paying half-year wages to the soldiers at one time, the remaining funds were used for ships, artillery, and muskets.

and maintenance of various other equipment.

After careful consideration, 500 Sichuan soldiers originally planned to be used in the construction of the new army were transferred from Baoding, and a battalion of guards to protect the industrial park were directly incorporated into the Dagu Water Camp, increasing the number of officers and soldiers in the Water Camp from the original 1,800 to

3400 people.

Officially submitted an official document to the capital, requesting that the Dagu Water Camp be upgraded to the Beiyang Navy (town). The Navy will not have a chief military officer for the time being, and Zamul, the former military commander, will serve as the deputy general and temporarily command the Navy.

In view of the importance of naval construction, Jia Liu ordered a month-long military training activity on the fourth day of July.

During this month, he, the governor of Zhili, did not go anywhere. He ate, lived, and practiced with the officers and soldiers of Shuiying every day. He would never leave without changing the appearance of the officers and soldiers of Shuiying.

As a result, the appearance of Shuiying officers and soldiers has been qualitatively improved, and at the same time, Jia Liu has been officially upgraded to Qingtian.

Because, with the sea breeze blowing and the sun shining down for days, his forehead really shined like a moon.

The price I paid for it was that I lost a layer of my skin due to the sun.

In the capital, the Tianjin Eight Banner Navy's rebellion was suppressed and was ratified by Lao Fu and Se. The upgrade of Dagu Shuiying to a town was also approved. Even the impeachment of the bannermen that Jia Liu was worried about did not happen.

The reason is that there is a fierce dispute in Beijing over the ownership of the Hat King.
